What are the differences, and can I do it without losing data?

I don't think there should be any problems. You can always copy the entire DROD folder to a backup folder just in case something happens. And also Export your player, and any holds that you are constructing, is always a good idea to do every so often even if you're not updating.

Game on,

DROD:AE 1.6.7 includes many important bug-fixes. It is the recommended version of AE to play and with which to design levels.

Erm... I upgraded, exporting my player, but it did not save my progress in holds other than KDD. I really do not wish to fight my way back through Bavato's Dungeon, even with the Warp Room... what should I do?

I don't know why KDD didn't work (as you say in your edit line) but for the other holds, you need to import them before you import your player file...or import your player file, import the other holds, and then import your player file again.

I don't really understand why you would lose data...did you install a patch, or did you download a full installation again? Perhaps you should tell us what you did step by step, not assuming we know what your exact process is.

Game on,
